Hi,
Ripary[1] is the new name (previously codeswarm.rb) of my project to
create a codeswarm clone in Ruby. In order to make it public I made a
new release and generated a video to visualize the 2.6.31 development.
Here it is:

The commits appear when the author created them, and each time that
happens the author is highlighted and the gravity increased. The same
happens with files, so if two people touch similar files they should
be close together. As time goes by, if there's no activity the authors
fade away.
The color map:
* documentation: yellow
* core: blue
* drivers: magenta
* arch: cyan
* rest of c code: green
* other: red
Ripary doesn't have problems rendering the history of most projects,
but the activity of the linux kernel was just too much, the current
algorithms took a looong time to finish (~1 day). Hopefully those will
get improved soon. Oh, and unfortunately YouTube is stripping too much
quality out of the video :(
Enjoy :)
